ACTIVAGE - Developers toolkit and deployment support

Abstract

This document is the deliverable D4.1 "Developers toolkit and deployment support" and presents the outcome of the activities T4.1 "ACTIVAGE Development tools" and T4.3 "ACTIVAGE Deployment tools" which are part of Work Package WP4 "ACTIVAGE Application support tools and services layer". The document makes a status of existing development and deployment tools prior to the ACTIVAGE project and describes the ones that are under progress to fulfill ACTIVAGE dedicated requirements. The requirements are presented in Section 2, and the Use Cases in Section 3, precising the uses by the kind of developer profiles listed in section 3.1. The presented tools in Section 4 allow the development of applications (developed for ACTIVAGE by third parties) on top of each given platform among the seven selected as ACTIVAGE IoT platforms (Fiware, openiot, IoTivity, seniorsome, sensiNact, Sofia2 and universAAL). They are used by application developers and platform contributors. For more details about the seven ACTIVAGE IoT platforms, please refer to the D3.1 Report on IoT European Platforms. The presented tools in Section 5 are the ones used in the nine ACTIVAGE deployment sites to support their hardware device installations and middleware installation on the resulting IT infrastructure. They are used by installation/deployment and IT teams. These existing development and deployment tools are available today and constitute the first step of ACTIVAGE toolkit: they are heterogeneous tools available for dedicated platforms and for specific deployment sites. Further works in tasks T4.1 and T4.3 will aim to complete the IoT platform dedicated tools with ACTIVAGE common development and deployment tools based on the common ACTIVAGE APIs under specification.
